Freeform Super 8mm documentation of Friday at Instal 06 by filmmaker Matt Hulse.
UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
The second edition of the INSTAL festival broadened it’s scope to include performances from Francisco Lopez, Phil Niblock, Stefan Mathieu, Alva Noto, Ryoji Ikeda and John Wall.
A cast of pioneering and provocative spirits who exist outside the mainstream, between borders and definitions; a series of events that each explore different aspects of music that doesn’t quite fit any given category. INSTAL 08 included the Self-Cancellation project.
